Chapter one: How it all began….

"Sasuke is getting a bit too much isolated, I think." Fikagu Uchiha said.

"Why would you say so?" His wife Mikoto asked.

"I dunno, a fatherly instinct I guess. He prefers to stay at home more these days "

Well so would you if your girlfriend broke up with you… Mikoto thought, but she said "Hmmm you may be right. So what would you suggest?"

"Well, what about him going to a public school?"

"WHAT? Public school? No way! I`m staying at home….."

Mikoto and Fikagu turned to an 18-year old boy with haughty, mature features. "Oh Sasuke…" Mikoto began.

"No, There`s no way I'm going….."

"Young man, hold your tongue when you speak to your mother! You will go to the school, you`ve already been enrolled and Neji Hyuga and Gaara will be going with you. No excuses. You start school on Monday. No Buts! Now get out of my sight!"

Sasuke bit his tongue, turned and ran out to his room.

What the hell! I`m so not going, what bullshit! What`s Dad`s problem any ways?

And other thoughts came streaming into his mind. He went to his window and looked out to the blue waves crashing on to the beach. A flashback came into his mind…..,Karin and he walking hand in hand, laughing, joking.

"UGHHH! Why can`t you just get out of my head, Karin!"

Sasuke banged his fist on the wall and nearly cried out because of the pain.


"Hey, Sakura. Sup?"

"Hi, Ino. Nothing much…well, exept the fact I`m grounded for the next entire week"

"What? Get Out! How"

"Hey guys, what`s new?" Temari and Hinata joined them.

"Hey guys. The `new` is that Sakura is grounded for the entire week!"

"Huh, really? Wow, what did you do now?" Temari smirked.

"Mom caught me as I was sneaking in last night. But I guess it was so worth it!"

"I totally agree!"Tenten came running up. ''The party was so cool! Anyways you guys heard the latest? Three new guys are coming to school today, sons of the most prestigious companies in Japan. I wonder what they`ll be like?"

"Hopefully cute!" Ino flipped her long blond hair.

"Ino! All you think of is about guys! Seriously, get a break." Sakura scoffed.

"Oh really, Sakura. But I saw you flirting with Naruto last night…." Temari said.

"Oh come on guys, the bell`s rung. We should go to class." Hinata said as Sakura`s cheeks became a deep shade of red, contrasting with her pink hair. For some reason Hinata`s own cheeks had a tinge of pink in them. "Yeah, let`s go."

And the girls broke up and went to their respective classes but Hinata was sure she saw Sakura wave to Naruto who was just parking his car in the park.
